On this episode I'm joined by Deborah Roberts. She’s on the eve of her first show in New York City in over five years at Stephen Friedman gallery opening, "What about us?" at their newest space in Tribeca. It's an important moment for her as an artist and for the New York art scene. Deborah is showcasing some of her biggest works to date and playing with composition and scale in ways that are new to her practice. During the conversation we talk about some of the layers and the deeper context behind her work,  ideas that are integral to the way that she thinks about and experiences the world, and why she believes that her work and the perspective she's illustrating is important necessary and timely for people to see.
